Representing a significant advancement in its military capabilities, recently India successfully conducted the first flight test of Multiple Independently Targetable Reentry Vehicles (MIRV) with the Agni-5 Intercontinental Ballistic Missile after several years of hardship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Agni-5<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) conducted a successful test of the MIRV technology hence placing India on an elite list of nations which demonstrates this capability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On this occasion, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced on X, “Proud of DRDO scientists for Mission Divyastra the first flight test of indigenously developed Agni-5 missile with Multiple Independently Targetable Reentry Vehicle (MIRV) technology.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interestingly, this mission was led by a woman DRDO scientist and several women scientists played a significant role in the mission, according to the sources<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Does Agni 5 Works With MIRV Technology?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It appears that DRDO scientists have been working on Multiple Independently Targetable Re-entry Vehicles (MIRV) technologies for many years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the help of this technology, a single missile like the Agni-5 can carry multiple warheads and independently target locations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Basically, this latest system developed by DRDO is equipped with indigenous Avionics systems and high-accuracy sensor packages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This further ensures that the re-entry vehicles reached the target points within the desired accuracy, said the sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Considering its operations, Agni-5 being an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) it first goes into space before re-entering the atmosphere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The missile can hit multiple targets located at different locations and can be engaged from the same missile with several warheads as it supports the MIRV technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is noteworthy here that these warheads could be nuclear or non-nuclear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Targeting Multiple Location With MIRV Technology<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In simple words, these bombs can target locations that are several hundred kilometers apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best part is that some MIRVed missiles can even hit targets separated by a distance of 1,500 kilometers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this capability, we can engage multiple targets to have a first-strike move for an edge during times of war. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier, Agni-5 missile had been tested, but it was tested only with a single warhead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When a missile re-enters the atmosphere, it can reach up to at least five times the speed of sound (5 Mach) with the help of Kinetic Energy as it loses altitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notably, the MIRV technology  has reduced the effectiveness of Anti-Missile Defense (AMD) systems as AMD is primarily deployed to engage single targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coming to the Agni-5 missile operational range, it is at least 5,000 km that can target cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It won’t be an exaggeration to say that the MIRV technology puts many cities within that range under the target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hence, providing a broader safety net and several locations under the missile’s reach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The truth is that the true range of missiles is always unknown.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
